If you're on Shopify, once you start making more than a million, you really have to think about registering for your taxes, which is a huge, huge paperwork burden, I don’t think people realize the cost of compiling with all those tax laws... With Amazon, you don't have to deal with that... Amazon is accountable for any harm on the platform… So they kind of keep you in check in that respect. And I think for beginners… overall, it’s a bit safer for small businesses to be on Amazon.If you enjoyed this episode then please either: Follow on SpotifySubscribe, rate and review on Apple PodcastsSyncSpider BlogLet’s keep learning and growing together in the world of eCommerce!If you want to learn more about our podcast or have an exciting story to share with our audience, check SyncSpider’s website for more info.
